A high-performance speech perceptual hashing authentication algorithm based on discrete wavelet transform and measurement matrix

Abstract

Aiming at the problems of existing speech authentication algorithms, such as poor robustness and discrimination, security vulnerability, low efficiency, poor ability of tamper detection and localization, a high-performance speech perceptual hashing authentication algorithm based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and measurement matrix is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the speech signal is conducted with DWT by applying preprocessing, and the low-frequency wavelet coefficients are regarded as the perceptual feature value. Then the measurement matrix controlled by chaos map is applied to reduce the dimension of feature value. Finally, the feature value is used to generate the perceptual hash sequence by the process of hashing structure. The measurement matrix is designed as the secret key to enhance the security of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results demonstrates the proposed algorithm has high efficiency in perceptual robustness, discrimination, time consumption and security, as well as having a high accuracy of tampering detection and localization.
